 2016 Williams v. Pennsylvania U.S. Supreme Court decision Mumia's legal 
 team is filing in Philadelphia on April 24 a petition for a new trial. The 
 Williams decision held that in death penalty cases a state prosecutor, who 
 is later appointed to a state court cannot rule on a decision that she/he 
 was previously a party to. In Mumia's case, state prosecutor Ron Castille, 
 who later became a PA Supreme Court judge, refused to recuse himself on 
 Mumia's appeal.\n\n
